244 Public Transportation


My husband's briefcase is a CTA (Chicago Transit Authority) messenger bag. The retro logo on the messenger bag is the CTA logo that was used from 1956 to 1970. He has tried a number of different types of briefcases and this is by far his favorite.

The CTA is the nation's second largest public transportation system. On an average weekday there are 1.8 million rides on the CTA. It is a regional transit system and serves 40 suburbs, as well as the City of Chicago.

  6. Mary Lou you have out done yourself in a very short time. How much you have learned. I like to think I encouraged you to take an interest in photography. Of course, we know Bob also had an influence.Your creativity blows my mind. Do you understand that looking at life is different for your now? You can never see things the same way again. I am so proud of you. This is not easy, the third time I've done this comment.
    I love you and keep up the good or should I say great work! Love, Ann
